1. Introduction

1.1 HVAC

Advantech's Intelligent Energy Management System for HVAC (iEMS/HVAC) integrates cutting-edge digital technologies including Artificial Intelligence, Cloud Computing, Internet of Things (IoT), and Digital Twin with domain-specific expertise. The system delivers comprehensive, one-stop energy efficiency management through precision control, establishing a closed-loop management cycle: Equipment Monitoring → Anomaly Detection → Energy Efficiency Diagnostics → Strategy Optimization.

The solution collects comprehensive operational data (operational parameters, energy consumption, weather data, etc.) from all HVAC equipment, performs multidimensional analysis and diagnosis of efficiency-impacting variables, and generates data-driven optimization strategies to maximize energy savings.
